Powerline is complaining today about the legacy that Jimmy Carter's presidency left us with respect to the Middle East and/or oil.Seriously? There have been four presidents since then, and 20 years of Republicans in the White House. Further, the congress has also had significant periods of large majorities in favor of Republicans (certainly not always, but enough to matter). And you still blame a president 30 years out of office? It's like blaming Teddy Roosevelt for a situation related to the Panama canal. Sure he may have been to blame at some time, but it's time to own the problem yourself.D
